Plz be honest everybody....
When was the last time you really and i mean really celebrated a goal, or been really upset (fuming/disgusted/mad) after conceding one....
It seems everyone(fans and players) is just going through the motions...noone knows what the target is, what the expectation is.
As fans we do not know the objectives set by the board for Moyes, is it top-3, top-4, top-6 what!!!
We are still winning away from home, so deffo the players are still performing decently and we do have quality but these defeats at home are just a result of low confidence, low morale, lack of tactical coaching with teams sitting back, nervousness and guess what all these things are a manager's responsibility.
I did support Moyes and was satisfied with his appointment at the start of the season, but in hindsight it does seem that he lacks the balls to be a manager for a big club.
Does anyone think that at traditional clubs like Barca, Bayern etc the manager would be able to continue after 4 home defeats in 6 games...and i am not even taking into account the embarassing losses at both the local/regional rivals i.e City and Liverpool. Throughout the past 6 months, not a single thing has led me to believe that Moyes is the man for the job.
Tactics: no signs of any-thing new. SAF got away with it well becos he was SAF.
Transfer Market: There is a reason he is called dithering Dave.
Coaching: Evertonisation of Utd
Man-management and motivation: 4 home defeats in 6 games!!!!!
Press Conferences: "We will keep plugging away/We will make ourselves harder to beat/We need to win no matter the style of play/ We reached the oppositions box quite a no of times(Dear dear dear God!!!)"
I think we all need to remind ourselves that we are one of the biggest football clubs in the world. SAF said that these standards should be maintained...I know he also said that we shd give the new man time but on what basis...
As far as the transfer window is concerned:
Jan: Not a good time for value, players are not available
Summer: As soon as the season finishes, most of the players will join their national teams for WC and will be almost impossible to sign, after the WC the valuations of the players will be sky high. Then there is the obvious question of us being in CL or not!!!
I really do not see any easy way out of this...does anyone else???

I rage whenever we concede a typical sloppy goal with Evans just standing watching normally or a double richochet. I rage everytime Valencia sprints stops,dithers and then smacks it against the defender. I rage when I see Giggsy on the team sheet. I rage when Evra trots back. I rage when Young dives. I rage when Chicho can't control it. I rage when i see Smalling hoof it. I rage when I see Kagawa fall over.
I rage when Sky's scouse panel lay into United. I rage at BT's anti-Utd bias. I rage at the local traffic, SUVs everywhere, kids not walking to and from school anymore. I rage at Winstone's ugly mug every commercial break, I rage at Adrian Childs......I rage that my recycling crate has been stolen again...
I rage..so much so..anger management courses on Groupon need to be bought !!

So have you ever raged then

I rage when one of our panto villains let's in goal and cry with joy when one of the pinups score a goal.
If a panto villain scores a goal though, i generally chalk that up to luck... And if a fan fave gets red carded or something and costs us the game, I don't bother even talking about it. Don't count.

How long till you start being the fans who start talking up their history to gain relevance in top team debates?
We'll take United's place and Liverpool will take our old place while you drop right down to Liverpool's place. Nice chain of events there
